Calo des Moro

  • Get your camera ready! Calo des Moro is an Instagram-worthy destination with clear, shallow waters that are perfect for paddling and snorkelling.

Essential Information

Getting Around

Most of Majorca’s major tourist resorts have a regular bus service, and there is a train service that can take visitors further inland, plus the vintage train running between Palma and Soller daily. Cars are available to hire cheaply from the popular tourist resorts or the airport. Ferries go to the other islands, plus mainland Spain, while boats are also available to hire to beach hop in style.


Travelling by bus or car

Tourist areas generally have good bus services shuttling between them, but longer routes can be much less frequent. Some routes don’t operate on Sundays, during low season or late at night.


Cars can be hired from most resorts or the airport, and the main roads are good. Book in advance during the peak season to guarantee a car, and to keep the price you pay as low as possible. Driving is on the right hand side.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which is the nicest part of Majorca?

If you are holidaying in the north, Puerto Pollensa, if south, Cala D’or. Any of Cala Millor, Sa Coma or Cala Bona in the east.

For kid friendly holidays in Majorca, Puerto Pollensa is our top choice. It has beautiful and safe beaches, and easy access to Hidropark.

Majorca is a year-round holiday destination, but October in particular is super - the heat has relented a little, and the crowds have dispersed.

Puerto Pollensa, Cala D'Or, Puerto de Soller and Sa Coma are all wonderful spots for a holiday in Majorca, lively enough but far removed from busier towns like Magaluf.

For child friendly beaches, head to the north of the island. For more secluded beaches, go east.
